Do you have to be flexible to do a backflip?
NO YOU DO NOT NEED TO BE FLEXABLE!..I'm a gymnast [have been one 7 years] I'm not what you call the most flexable out of the bunch!..l0l...so really no you don't need to be...like people think if your flexable your a good gymnast and if your not flexable your not a good gymnast wich is sooo not true!
pretty much if ypou can do a frontflip then youll probablt be able to do a backflip you need to be able to land front flips good though before you try also its probably easier if you practice on something like a trampoline
To get a better backflip, try to swing the momentum by doing some side cart-wheels then do your backflip. Erm... for flexibility. I don't think it matters.
